MISS NEBRASKA 80th ANNIVERSARY GALA

Help celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the Miss Nebraska Pageant. Step back a few years while you view a timeless display of actual Miss Nebraska Evening Gowns. See how the fashion has evolved from ball gowns, to fully beaded ensembles, to silk chiffon skirts. Dance to music from local band The Innocence and mingle with Aleah Peters, Miss Nebraska 2016 and all of the 2017 Miss Nebraska Contestants. Make sure you stop by the photo booth before you leave to get a commemorative photo of the evening.
